Social Studies - American Heroes research
  - We are continuing to create our own Voice Thread.  The students will do research about an American Hero of their choice. They will then write a story about that person and draw pictures to fit the story.  The pictures will be scanned into the computer and the students will record their voice reading their story.  Their work will be uploaded to site using my name, not theirs.  They will then be able to share their story over the Internet.
